So on a more serious not, there is another element to the lake level raising.....
The release at lakeport is being held at ~30cfs right now for the normal draw down, down stream...
When they resume the minimum 250 cfs at the end of the two week hold back, I think we will see the lake rapidly drop again. In fact given the low level of Winnisquam I will not be surprise to see them open Lakeport past 250 cfs for a few days....
This is all normal dam operation for this time of year.... unless we get a lot of rain, I expect the lake to go below 502.32 before the end of the year....
